-- Connecting the dots between our economy, government and business --
Citing a 2017 report from the Center for American Progress, a liberal think tank, the brief argues economies are stronger in places where local governments have sanctuary policies. Undocumented immigrants contribute an estimated $1.5 billion in taxes annually in Illinois, according to data from the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy included in the filing.
With $162 billion more from taxpayers, couldn’t you deliver a few bond upgrades, too
A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
Everybody needs a side hustle these days, and mine is Ukraine, where I am now.

Deport the illegals and get the citizen slackers to work. Lock up the criminals. What’s not to like?
I wonder if the “Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy” is one of the organizations getting Federal funding? I know every time I read something under its banner it seems to be left sided, not impartial and therefore hardly deserved of public funds.
It’s in the name: ILLEGAL immigrants. They broke our laws and are sopping up resources that should be supporting LEGAL CITIZENS.
Mass deportations can’t come soon enough. The only path they should follow is the path back to where they came from.
Note to border jumpers at your rallies: Phrase your signs in English or they won’t be understood. And please shelve that abomination of a hybrid American/ Mexican flag. It is an insult.
Over my lifetime I have worked with, been friends with and neighbours with many illegal aliens. Individually many were / are good people, but as a group they are a huge problem when it comes to the Citizens quality of life and I want to see them gone. In the suburb I live in I’m now seeing push cart vendors on residential streets. Multiple families in single family houses with street parking out of control.
